Let them live with that regret for the rest of their lives!

Just as Elise was about to go check on Elena, Wendy's clone reached out and grabbed Elise's sleeve, saying expressionlessly, "Target found."

“Then take me there.” Elise didn’t call anyone else, but led the little maid and quickly found the habitat of the giant boars, guided by the butterfly.

Giant-toothed boars look similar to ordinary wild boars, but their two tusks are extremely thick, and as fifth-tier magical beasts, they are extremely fast and live in groups, so they are not easy for ordinary adventurers to deal with.

Elise wasted no time. After assessing the surrounding situation, she summoned the Eloise Longbow and began firing charm arrows at the giant boar.

Once struck by the Enchanting Arrow, the Giant-Toothed Boar will, without hesitation, begin attacking its surrounding companions, following Elise's orders.

Soon, chaos erupted among the group of giant-toothed pigs.

The maid knew her mistress didn't want to waste time, so she quickly joined in the harvesting.

However, she did not use the Devourer's Dagger. If she had used it, the giant boar she killed would probably have been left with nothing.

The battle did not last long before it ended.

Elise and the maid quickly cleaned up the battlefield, putting the giant boar's carcass into a space ring specifically used for storing food.

"Okay, let's go back."

"Yes, ma'am."

The little maid transformed into shadow and enveloped Elise.

In a forest, using shadows to move is extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, the two were back at the lake.

By this time, Elena had already caught quite a few fish using her specially made fishing rod.

Seeing Elise walking towards her, Elena also revealed a smug smile. Although she didn't say anything, her expression seemed to be asking Elise how amazing she was.

Elise glanced at the fishing rod in Elena's hand, then chuckled softly, "Wow, that's amazing! You've really worked hard."

She then told Elena that Flora, knowing her father was going fishing for fish today, had sent her a specially made fishing rod last night, which was exactly the same as the one Elena had.

Just as she was contemplating whether to use the same fishing rod to fish, a butterfly suddenly landed on Elise's shoulder, and she heard the Dreamwalker's voice in her ear.

According to the latest intelligence received by the Dream Walker, something has happened again at the Eternal Church.

The second largest cathedral of the Eternal Church in the Holy Kingdom was destroyed by an unknown powerful being.

Volume 1: Chapter 210 She gradually understood everything

The second cathedral of the Eternal Church was located in Arles, the main city in the north of the Holy Kingdom, near the Holy Mountain. Elise had reason to suspect that the cathedral's collapse was related to Sera.

If what she suspected was true, then Sera's combat power was indeed formidable. After all, that was the main city of the Holy Kingdom, a place where an eighth-tier expert was stationed, and the cathedral was the headquarters of the Eternal Church in Yale.

This is considered a fairly difficult dungeon in the game, and it collapsed just like that. Its combat power is probably already on par with the fully-formed Savior Hero.

However, given the commotion caused, the Eternal Church will certainly not allow Sera to continue her recklessness. Elise estimates that the Eternal Church may have to send out a ninth-tier being next.

It's even possible that the Eternal God himself will intervene.

She didn't know what Sera's current state was, neither her physical condition nor her mental state. Elise only remembered that when she sacrificed everything, Sera's strength was at the ninth level.

It's a pity she can't contact the other party yet; otherwise, it would be easy for her to get in touch with Sera and bring her into her camp.

Seeing Elise suddenly fall silent, the maid beside her asked softly, "Miss."

"It's nothing, we just received news from the Holy Kingdom, it doesn't really concern us." Elise said as she walked to a lounge chair by the lake, lay down lazily, and enjoyed this rare moment of leisure.

She had been through countless near-death experiences and rarely had such a relaxed environment during this period.

She remembered that when she was dealing with this matter before, she was thinking about how to cultivate the protagonist she was betting on, or how to defend against attacks from other protagonists.

At the same time, three things happened simultaneously.

In the southeast of the Holy Kingdom, another main city of the Holy Kingdom, Crossrod, is located.

As the main city of the Holy Kingdom, the streets are filled with clergy from the Eternal Church walking back and forth.

A middle-aged man watched a group of Templar Knights walk by and remarked to his companion, "Don't you think the Templar Knights are patrolling more frequently today?"

"You didn't know? The cathedral in Alar was attacked by an unknown powerful figure. The entire cathedral was reduced to ruins, and the church suffered extremely heavy losses." His companion glanced at the departing Templar Knights and said in a low voice.

"Really? They actually dared to attack a cathedral within the Holy Kingdom's territory?"

“Of course it’s true. Crossrod is the closest major city to Yarle, so the church members here are naturally on edge.” At this point, his companion sighed softly, “I’m even thinking about whether I should go back to the countryside for a while, otherwise, if we get caught up in it, it would be an undeserved disaster.”

“Then let’s go back. I’ll also go back to see my wife. I’ve been away from home for two or three years, and the baby was born this year, but I haven’t been back to see her yet.”

"Ok?"

While the two men were chatting, a stunningly beautiful blonde girl walked past them, immediately stopping their conversation.

They stared blankly at the blonde girl who had just walked by, and could vaguely smell the faint fragrance of morning dew and flowers.

Only after the girl had walked away did the middle-aged man remind his companion, "Don't look anymore. That must be a noble lady. It's not something people like us should think about."

"I know even if you don't say it. Never mind, I'm going back to pack my things." Distracted just now, his companion forgot what he wanted to say and left in a hurry.

Many others left Crossrod like them, wanting to avoid the limelight.

The blonde girl slowly walked into a dessert shop, then found a seat and sat down.

She remembered bringing Sera here before; the strawberry cake here was delicious, and she ate three whole slices back then.

No, it was Sera who ate three pieces; I only ate one bite.

Familiar memories kept surfacing in Sera's mind, but they were incredibly chaotic; once again, she had forgotten who she was.

It wasn't until Sera saw her reflection in the window and looked at the stunningly beautiful blonde girl that she gradually understood everything.

By the way, she is Elise.

"Miss, are you alright?" The shop assistant asked with concern, looking at the beautiful young woman in front of her with her brows furrowed and her expression seemingly in pain.

The pain on the girl's face vanished instantly, replaced by an elegant smile: "Please give me a strawberry cake."

The shop assistant was momentarily stunned by the beautiful girl's smile. After a while, he realized what was happening, nodded repeatedly, and turned to leave.

However, after leaving, the staff did not go to the counter or the kitchen, but walked out of the store with a blank look on their faces.

Sera looked out the window. The once bustling street had suddenly become deserted for some reason, as if everyone had disappeared in an instant.

Sera showed no sign of panic, only muttering under her breath, "They found us so quickly? What a nuisance."

As she finished speaking, a beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping the entire dessert shop. In the blink of an eye, the light vanished, along with the entire dessert shop.

A gigantic eyeball with six wings on its back floated in the sky, its golden pupils constantly scanning the entire Krosrod. But at that moment, a jet-black light suddenly appeared, and a black magic sword was impaled in the center of the eyeball from nowhere.

Golden blood fell like rain.

……

"Miss, wake up."

The sleeping Elise was awakened by the maid. Seeing her mistress's dazed expression, the maid couldn't help but ask, "Miss, are you alright?"

Elise shook her head: "I was just thinking about some things from the past."

She had just fallen asleep when she dreamed of the time she bet on Sera, back when she went to great lengths to get in touch with Sera.

Fortunately, the Eternal Church had great confidence in the Holy Sword and did not interfere too much with Sera's actions, which gave her an opportunity.

Elise still remembers that time when she randomly received the faith of the Goddess of Pain. As a believer of the Goddess of Pain, one can only borrow Her power when one is in pain.

The more intense the pain, the greater the power one can possess.

For her, who is extremely afraid of pain, randomly obtaining this ability is no different from winning the lottery.

Elise hadn't expected that she would be able to stick with this faith for so long after it was randomly assigned to her.

If only I had the power to transform pain into pleasure back then, her sacrifice before her death was just too painful.

"Things from the past?" The maid's eyes sparkled with curiosity.

"It's nothing. It's getting late, let's go back too."

The changing ring on Elise's hand shimmered, and her cool swimsuit was instantly replaced by a luxurious and elegant long dress.

Volume 1: Chapter 211 Maru! Wrong Clothes!

"What? You took care of the Giant-Toothed Boar?"

Upon hearing his daughter's words, Earl Byron was momentarily speechless. Even a fifth-tier adventurer team wouldn't want to face a group of giant-toothed boars.

He had originally planned to have someone post a quest at the Adventurers' Guild, but now it seemed unnecessary.

"The meat of the giant-toothed pig tastes very good. I saved a lot for you. You can eat it whenever you want."

"Very well, very well." A smile appeared on Count Byron's face.

In fact, not only the giant-toothed boars, but also other threatening magical beasts in the forest have been eliminated by Iris, so Noys territory will not need to face the threat of magical beasts for the time being.

Furthermore, she has built insect nests in the forest so that she can detect and resolve any problems immediately.

"Oh, right, there's something else I need to tell you."

Seeing his daughter's expression turn serious, Earl Byron also suppressed his smile: "What is it?"

"I found this while I was clearing out magical beasts in the forest." Elise took out the magic crystal she had prepared beforehand.

Not only does Noyce Territory have gold mines, but it also has magic crystal mines, though they are quite hidden. Iris discovered them when she was playing a game before; the location is near the forest.

Earl Byron, who frequently dealt with minerals, certainly knew what this magic crystal represented.

He even unconsciously lowered his voice: "Where was it found?"

Elise handed over the map she had prepared beforehand: "Our family already has a gold mine. If we add another magic crystal mine, it will be too conspicuous. If Father wants to mine it, we should be careful."

"Whether there's a mineral vein or not is still uncertain. I'll take some people to investigate tomorrow. Besides you, who else knows about this?"

"My friends are all trustworthy, so you can rest assured."

“Alright.” Count Byron had no doubt about Elise’s words and simply nodded. He then began to consider in his mind how to handle the situation more prudently if there really was a magic crystal mine.

The gifts for the old man's wife have already been delivered to the other party (Iris), but she hasn't continued to stay in the study.

Although she had been sleeping and slacking off all day, she had used the insects to investigate the mine and the surrounding area. Only after confirming that there were no problems did she hand over the map she had drawn to the old man.

This map is also one of the reasons why Elise led people into the forest.

Now that everything that needed to be done has been done, she can finally relax for the next few days.

Just then, as if sensing something, a look of pleasure involuntarily appeared in Elise's eyes.

She used a lot of pleasure energy today, and now the side effects are starting to appear.

Although she can use her ability to block out the urge for pleasure, once the ability's duration ends, she will experience a moment of loss of control.

So Iris didn't do that; she was just forcibly enduring it.

She took a deep breath and quickened her pace as she returned to her room.

Back in her hometown, the little maid didn't dare to be as unrestrained as she was at Elise Manor, so Elise slept alone every night.

Although Vivian came back with her this time, her personal maid and the seventh-rank head maid also came along. It wouldn't be good if she found out that Vivian came to her room in a wheelchair in the middle of the night.

So Elise didn't contact Vivian, but instead chose Elena.

Elise stood on the balcony, casually picked up an insect egg, and a butterfly soon emerged from its cocoon.

Elena, who was having a great time fighting another version of herself in her dream, suddenly realized that the other version of herself had stopped, and then she felt an itch in her nose.

Then she was kicked out of the burning church.

When Elena woke up, she discovered that a pink butterfly had landed on her nose sometime during the night.

The moment Elena saw the butterfly, she knew what had happened.

She cautiously glanced at her younger sister sleeping on the other bed, and after confirming that she was still fast asleep, she carefully got up and nimbly climbed over the balcony.

Elena's series of movements were fluid and graceful, as if she had done them countless times.

She's only done this a few times, so why is she so skilled at it?

As Elena mentally berated herself, she gracefully landed on the balcony of Elise's room.

Looking at Elise, who was also standing on the balcony with a flushed face, Elena asked softly, "Are you having another episode?"

"While you were fishing today, I went and hunted down dozens of giant-toothed boars."

Although bewitching a monster is much simpler than bewitching a human, it is still a fifth-tier being. After a series of actions, the side effects of the power of pleasure have accumulated to a very deep level.

Otherwise, Elise wouldn't have been so eager to find Elena late at night after everyone else had fallen asleep.

Seeing Elise's anxious and restless appearance, Elena suddenly felt an urge to tease her. She wondered what kind of reaction Elise would have if she hesitated for a moment.
